The Best of NileGuide
- The colorful island of Puerto Rico, while small, boasts some of the best food even the most seasoned world traveler can hope to find. Master chefs are leaving the continental United States to find that new inspiration and finding that it leads them to Puerto Rico. Chef Peter Schintler, having worked in such restaurants as Le Cirque in New York City, New York is now the head chef of Marmalade in Old San Juan. Fashioning a menu consisting of his own unique mix of Californian and French cuisine, Schintler is bringing international acclaim to the island of Puerto Rico. San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico, is filled with elegant and sophisticated restaurants offering all different cuisines and providing an upscale dining experience. If you are looking for the ultimate royal treatment then look no farther than Compostela in San Juan. A small establishment with only 10 to 12 tables, a reservation in advance is a necessity. The chef and owner will likely stop by your table and might even help to recommend a bottle of wine from their extensive cellar housing over 1000 varieties of wine. Traditional Spanish food is the tone of the menu, infusing the restaurant with local flavors. While all this will cost you a bit more, the experience is worth the price. If you are looking for a more overall cultural experience, Puerto Rico loves to showcase its local dishes. The entire island is with restaurants specializing in the dishes of the area, but to experience more than just the food, La Casona will offer all you are looking for and more. Nestled in a secluded spot, La Casona is the oldest restaurant on the island, founded in 1971 and serving guests for 35 years. The skillfully restored 80 year old mansion is a testament to the history of Puerto Rico and all its beauty. The menu is comprised of traditional Spanish dishes and while you dine a Spanish guitarist will serenade you. The local flavors only intensify as you leave the city of San Juan and explore the rest of the island. If you are traveling along the coast, seafood is the dish of choice. There are many great seafood restaurants on the west coast of the island, but Island View Restaurant in Cabo Rojo is truly spectacular. With views overlooking the water and the many uninhabited islands just off shore, the scenery can’t be beat. The restaurant is family owned and don’t be surprised to find the whole family in residence. When it comes to food the island of Puerto Rico will satisfy your cravings, whatever they may be.
